Check for elevated role

[Meloper]

Hi is it possible to check if a admin has for example the Security Admin Role active?
I want to hide a Modul for admins, if they are not elevate at security admin

Hi @Meloper ,

There are only two ways I know of OOTB. First is set active to false, which does not work for you.  The second is if its a scoped app that has "Application administration" set to true.

Hi @Meloper ,

In sys_user_has_role table you can find the users who has Security Admin role active.

In server side scripts you can write gs.hasRole("security_admin") to check whether a user has security admin role or not

In client side scripts you can write g_user.hasRole("security_admin") to check whether a user has security admin role or not

g_user.hasRoleExactly() and gs.hasRoleExactly() as well available at client and server side.

Hi, do you already know how i can select that a role has to be elevated?
Like teh sec admin role.
Can i do this with a custom role also? That an admin has to elevate as this role?

Generally Security Admin role is only provided for the users with Admin role.

I don't think it is possible through custom role as per my knowledge.
